Medicines for
Multiple Sclerosis
An estimated 250,000 to
350,000 Americans suffer from
multiple sclerosis, a disorder of
the central nervous system. Mul-
tiple sclerosis is thought to be
caused by a virus. Nerve damage
results from a deterioration of the
myelin sheath, the fatty covering
surrounding and protecting nerve
tissue. Once this fatty protective
cover is lost, certain body func-
tions may be impaired. In the more
advanced stages of multiple scle-
rosis, such as with severe nerve
damage, the person affected may
lose control of certain muscles and
need to be confined to a wheel
chair.
Symptoms of multiple sclero-
sis may include bowel and bladder
problems, fatigue, difficulty in
walking, sweating, pain in the
joints, loss of vision, sexual dys-
function, and mood swings. After
the first attack, often there may be
a period of remission (a time with
no symptoms) that can last from a
few months to three years.
While there is no cure for or
way to prevent this condition, there
are several agents being evaluated
to help control symptoms. The first
prescription medicine approved
for multiple sclerosis was an anti-
viral drug, beta interferon, which
has been shown to be partially
